Hmmm! Where are the African-Americans in this Salvation Army cult scenario? These SA brass band music hobbyists are all white. Maybe there should be a Congressional investigation to determine why underprivileged African-American and other disadvantaged people of color are ignored by this cult, whose efforts are funded by the good public giver in the U.S. The SA raises money based on their claim they help the poor, but they finance their cult with these funds.
Former Canadian Staff Bandmaster Kevin Hayward was black (from Bermuda, and living in Canada, therefore not technically "African-American"), stepped down because of health issues. Soprano cornet in National Capital Band is African-American. It's not a cult. Get over it.
@rpiercy3 There are a couple of black players in my corps band including one actually from africa. Please only talk about something when you know all the facts.
You guys should stop this, I'm black and playing this band ( solo cornet)
